Elon Musk says too many game studios are owned by giant corporations so his giant corporation is going to start a studio to 'make games great again'
  • Elon Musk says too many game studios are owned by giant corporations

    Uh oh. Am I going to have to agree with the worst person in the world?

    so his giant corporation is going to start a studio to 'make games great again'

    Oh whew. He's got the worst possible solution to the problem. The world is still correctly aligned.

  • Temporary rule added: no US politics
  • I just had a couple of comments moderated because of this rule, and as a result discovered that this rule existed.

    THANK YOU so much. I have never been so happy to have comments removed.

  • Fellow Americans, which family member are you not looking forward to seeing for Thanksgiving that you know will bring up politics?
  • I’m actually arguing against infighting in this instance.

    proceeds to continue infighting

    Mmm-hmm.

    No, I get what you're saying, but your false equivalency just isn't working because you're conveniently ignoring the absolutely dire parts of Trump's policies.

    "No, the sandwiches are the same!"

    "...one of them is sauerkraut and toadstool with arsenic sauce, and the other is bologna and ketchup...?"

    "But they both have BREAD!"

    Look, I'm not interested in re-litigating this. You got what you wanted, Harris lost. Trump is predictably doing awful things because Harris lost. This is the world you chose. Now what?

  • All the other brands went along
  • Buying a basic, no-frills USB-C cable from a reputable tech manufacturer all but guarantees that it'll work for essentially any purpose. Of course the shoddy pack-in cables included with a cheap device purchase won't work well.

    I replaced every USB-C-to-C or -A-to-C cable and brick in my house and carry bag with a very low cost Anker cable (except the ones that came with my Google products, those are fine), and now anything charges on any cable.

    You wouldn't say that a razor sucked just because the cheap replacement blades you bought at the dollar store nicked your face, or that a pan was too confusing because the dog food you cooked in it didn't taste good. So too it is not the fault of USB-C that poorly manufactured charging bricks and cables exist. The standard still works; in fact, it works so well that unethical companies are flooding the market with crap.

  • 2FA after recent update

    I had 2FA enabled for lemmy.world before the big update this past weekend, and when I logged out/in this morning I discovered that 2FA had been turned off for my account. I've got it turned back on and I think it's working now, but just a heads up that if you had 2FA enabled you might need to re-enable it.

    Messages for Android Beta scheduled send broken

    In the latest Messages for Android Beta, scheduled send is broken due to a date validation bug. It won't let you schedule messages after today's date number in any month. So, for instance, today's date is 29 November, 2023; it won't allow any messages to be scheduled in December unless they're scheduled on the 29th, 30th, or 31st. Also, it won't allow any messages to be scheduled in 2024, for what I assume are similar reasons.

    Reverting to the latest stable version fixes it and allows messages to be scheduled for any future date.

    !
